Forecasts

Lady Loretto (5/2), Best Of Dubai (9/2), Ifyoucatchmenow (9/2), Moyhenna (13/2), Holycross Lito (8/1), Kilbarry Calling (8/1), Girley Talk (16/1), Maple Lawn (16/1), Shantou Bay (20/1), Fulysse (25/1), Darrens Diamond (50/1), Esthers Marvel (50/1), Last One (50/1), Krujers Girl (50/1), Ardlea Rose (66/1)

Verdict

Ifyoucatchmenow is obviously respected as a point-to-point winner who has been recruited by Willie Mullins, but preference is for BEST OF DUBAI. Gordon Elliott's representative has had a few chances by now but has shown that he can perform at this level and is perhaps a little unlucky not to have gotten off the mark. He could be the one to be with here in a race where Lady Loretto is another interesting point-to-point recruit.
  1. Best Of Dubai
  2. Ifyoucatchmenow
  3. Lady Loretto
